Atthaya Thitikul is currently at the Paris Olympics representing Team Thailand. After four rounds of golf at the Le Golf National, Thitikul is in fifth place with a score of 6-under and is in contention to win her first medal at the Olympics and Thailand's 7th medal in this edition.

In the third round of the Paris Olympics, Thitikul was paired with hometown hero Celine Boutier. After the end of the round, the Thai international detailed her experience of playing with Boutier. Calling it an amazing experience, Thitkul said:

“I’m not talking about my golf but I’m talking about all the crowd and them rooting for Celine. I played with her in front of her hometown and I think she’s just really a role model here in France.”

While Atthaya Thitikul is in 5th position at the Paris Olympics, Celine Boutier is tied for 7th place along with Nelly Korda, Xiyu Lin, and Ruoning Yin. Boutier scored 4-under to achieve this position and will look to perform better tomorrow to potentially win a medal in front of her fans.
